Psalm 100
Psalm 100 is a very familiar Psalm. I would say that it is one of the top five most familiar Psalms. When I was in grade school, this was one of the Psalms we learned in Bible memorization class. Psalm 100 is a popular Psalm utilized in services during the Thanksgiving Day period in my country the United States. It is a Psalm that remindes us to praise the Lord and always be thankful for the abundant blessings that God has given us.
There is one particular verse that I want us to focus on today. Verse five states, "His faithfulness continues through all generations."
The Lord has shown Himself to be faithful to His chosen people down through the centuries. God called Abraham out of Ur and told him that he would make from him a great nation. The Lord said that through Abraham's seed, all the nations of the world would be blessed.
Even when the people of Israel turned their backs on God and followed after idols, God continued to watch over His people. He would preserve His people as a nation clear till this day.
The Lord has also been faithful to His church. Two thousand years after the time of Christ on Earth, the church is still preaching the message of Jesus' atoning death on the cross and His bodily resurrection from the dead.
The Lord is faithful to us. Jesus said that He will never leave us nor forsake us. One day, He will take us home to be with Him forever. No matter what happens to us during the course of this life Jesus will always keep us in His love.
